The New York Brew Pub & Distillery, a popular beer and liquor outlet at the New York State Fair, has decided not to return this year due to factors such as decreased foot traffic, increased competition, and the Fair's 25% fee on alcohol sales. The stands, known for their extensive selection of New York state beers and distilled products, including "Moonshine Slush," have been unable to generate enough revenue to stay open.
